If I Woke Up From A Coma...

...I would not believe it was February.

I went on a hike today. Up in the canyon. You know, the place that is usually covered in snow this time of year... It wasn't. In fact, it was warm. REALLY warm.

See?



There was a TON of mud, the kind of mud that steals your shoes. It was really gross. 

My theory, after hiking in this AWESOME weather, is that this summer will suck. It's either going to be crazy warm--like living-on-the-sun warm--or really cold--like typical-february cold. If it snows on the fourth of July, we can totally use aerials to blow up snowmen, anyone on board?

"Owl Always Love You" Update

I haven't had much time to work on this, yet. Sundance (which was awesome) kind of got in the way.

Anyway, my process has been so far to pick fabric:


The one on the left has larger squares, for larger stitching. The one on the right obviously has tighter stitches. In the end, I picked the one on the left. I liked the color better. The design is also too spread out to fit on the white fabric and inside the small circle anyway.



This is the start of owl. His bum is to the right, and his head will be to the left. He looks like a weird mushroom thing.
